Why We Like The Distance FLZ Trekking Poles

The Distance FLZ Trekking Poles are lightweight, durable sticks for our short hikes to heavy multi-day treks. They're made of tough aluminum, which offers plenty of support without breaking and have EVA foam grips with lightweight foam extensions and breathable padded straps to offer support on rocky crossings, steep ascents, and treacherous side hills.

Distance hiking poles

These are perfect lightweight poles for us old folks who don't want to slip and fall on snowy/icy winter walks. Very easy to adjust the height, and compact to throw into a backpack when they are not needed. Only bad thing was I had to buy a second set after my wife tried them out :)

Perfect Poles

Poles compact and well made. Would have only wished that the regular pole baskets include a notch to clic with one section of each pole.

Robust and Great for Travel!

I bought these because some friends were using them when we were hiking together in Jasper National Park, Canada. They had travelled to Alberta from Seattle and spoke about how easy they were to pack for their flight here. I could see how robust but light they were so ordered them for an upcoming trip to Ontario. Thanks for designing such a great product!

Great Start!

I just got these poles and took them out for my first 4 hour trail run. They are quick to stow and set up. Love how lightweight and short they are. I have no issues fitting them on my Osprey Duro 6, which has not been the case for the non-z style poles. I'm also really happy with Black Diamond's customer service. I had an issue with a different pole, and they were quick to offer support and help with the problem. Looking forward to this training cycle!

Awesome poles, about as light as aluminum gets

These are rad running poles. The 3 parts fold up nice and small but are super easy to extend and take out when needed. For aluminum poles these are definitely light. I've had too much issue with carbon fiber snapping when any sort of torquing motion is placed on them, so at this point I'm a fan of the aluminum. I'll take the extra few grams to ensure they don't snap when I place them just wrong. Not to mention they're cheaper than their aluminum counterparts. Would certainly buy again.

Nice!

These Black Diamond trekking poles are very lightweight, grip & strap are comfortable and they feel sturdy. Easy to fold & deploy. I am pleased with this purchase. I will use them for hiking and trail runs. They are replacing heavier/cheaper trekking poles- should have done it sooner.

great versatile poles

Had the z poles before and decided to try FLZ. Love that it's still light and compact when folded but can adjust length for downhill. Will also see if it can be used for trekking pole tents in the near future.
